Title: Quantitative estimates on singularities of minimal hypersurfaces  
Abstract:
We will discuss the occasionally unavoidable presence of singularities on minimal hypersurfaces in high dimensional ambient spaces and estimates on its size. This is seemingly an analysis problem but the variational notion of minimal hypersurfaces plays a much more important role than its defining PDE. The proof relies simply on coverings arguments by suitable open sets and we will go over the main ideas and consequences.

Title: Minimal hypersurfaces: bubble convergence and index
Abstract:
The regularity theories of Schoen--Simon--Yau and Schoen--Simon for stable minimal hypersurfaces are foundational in geometric analysis. Using this regularity theory, in low dimensions, Chodosh--Ketover--Maximo, and Buzano--Sharp, studied singularity formation along sequences of minimal hypersurfaces through a bubble analysis.

I will review this background, before talking about my recent work in this bubble analysis theory. In particular I will show how to obtain upper semicontinuity of index plus nullity along a bubble converging sequence of minimal hypersurfaces.

Title: Mixed norm decoupling for paraboloids
Abstract:
In this talk we discuss mixed norm decoupling estimates for the paraboloid. One motivation of considering such an estimate is a conjectured mixed norm Strichartz estimate on the torus which essentially is an estimate about exponential sums. This is joint work with Shival Dasu, Hongki Jung, and José Madrid.

Title: Venetian blinds, digital sundials, and efficient coverings
Abstract:
Davies's efficient covering theorem states that we can cover any measurable set in the plane by lines without increasing the total measure. This result has a dual formulation, known as Falconer's digital sundial theorem, which states that we can construct a set in the plane to have any desired projections, up to null sets. The argument relies on a Venetian blind construction, a classical method in geometric measure theory. In joint work with Alex McDonald and Krystal Taylor, we study a variant of Davies's efficient covering theorem in which we replace lines with curves. This has a dual formulation in terms of nonlinear projections.

Title:
On the Fourier transform of BV functions
Abstract:
This talk is based on a joint work with Thomas Beretti (SISSA, Trieste). The plan is to introduce BV functions and the Fourier transform and study how this two objects interact. We will prove asymptotic formulae for the Fourier transform of BV functions and (as a corollary) for characteristic functions of sets of finite perimeter. Finally we will show how, using techniques of geometric measure theory, it is possible to sharpen some results of Herz, concerning convergence properties of the Fourier transform of sets. Time permitting, we will show some applications to the isoperimetric inequality and some open problems.

Title: On trilinear singular Brascamp-Lieb forms
Abstract:
Brascamp-Lieb forms are multilinear integral forms acting on functions on Euclidean spaces. A necessary and sufficient condition for their boundedness on Lebesgue spaces is known. Singular Brascamp-Lieb forms arise when one of the functions in a classical Brascamp-Lieb form is replaced by a singular integral kernel. Examples include Coifman-Meyer multipliers and multilinear Hilbert transforms. A general necessary and sufficient condition for the boundedness of singular Brascamp-Lieb forms remains unknown, and their theory continues to be developed on a case-by-case basis. In this talk, we classify all trilinear singular Brascamp-Lieb forms and establish bounds for a specific class of forms that naturally emerge from this classification. Additionally, we provide a survey of the literature and briefly discuss conditional bounds for forms associated with mutually related representations. This talk is based on joint work with Lars Becker and Fred Yu-Hsiang Lin.

Title: Multilinear embedding theorem for fractional sparse operators 
Abstract:
Under \( A_{\vec{p}} \) condition for weights, we show some simple sufficient conditions for which the multilinear embedding theorem holds for fractional sparse operators. Checking this simple sufficient condition, we demonstrate that theorem for power weights.

Title:Infinitesimal \( L^p \rightarrow L^q \) relative bounds for \( (-\Delta)^{\alpha/2} + v \)  
Abstract:
By analyzing the trace inequality for Bessel potentials, some Morrey-type sufficient conditions are given for which \( L^p \rightarrow L^q \), \( 1 < p, q < \infty \), infinitesimal relative boundedness of the Schrödinger operators \( (-\Delta)^{\alpha/2} + v \) holds. These results provide new aspects of Morrey spaces and a nice application of weight theory. This is a joint work with Prof. N. Hatano, R. Kawasumi and H. Tanaka.
